Too Many Job offer calls

Its because they "reduced" the number of calls we get in the last patch. But all that seems to have happened is the social calls eg. Dates, npc parties, festivals and concerts and get famous things like charity / lampoon invites and blind dates dont happen so all the other calls increased especially job invites and those annoying i noticed you became friends with calls.

I think it should have been the opposite way around. Some challenges rely on invites to dates and events and I can't play them at present. Also it makes all the other sims seem even more lifeless if that were possible. I loved seeing who wanted to date my sim or ask them out.

I hope they look at it and balance it out some more.

I think job offer calls are somehow related to reputation, if im not wrong...

I’m getting them pretty often now, too. These should be very rare. I’m relieved the phone calls are generally toned down. I’m still getting invites out - just not every day like before.
If you want someone to invite you out somewhere, try texting them. They usually call and want to meet up

Omg no wonder I got no invites! That's why I hate when simmers complain about features I like. I enjoyed all the invites ?? i went on a lot of nice dates. hate the job calls as I don't even do the careers

I wish we could turn them off completely. My sims usually already have jobs. I'm not going to just switch to a new one.

One of my sims seems to get a lot of them... she's at the top of the Doctor career track and has a pristine reputation. Her girlfriend is at level 8 in the Culinary career track with a good reputation and hasn't had any calls yet so I've always assumed that the higher the reputation, the more calls they get.

I think so, they come very often when my Sim has a pristine reputation.

I think they need to rework the job offers it a way that actually makes them enticing, or at least considerable. As many of you have mentioned, you are usually already at (or near) the top of your chosen career and only being offered a Level 5 position in a career that you aren't really interested in. If they are going to pouch you from your chosen career, then they should have the new job offer include a single step down (so if you are level 10, then they offer a level 9 position) and a cash bonus. Make the job offer enticing!!

I don't get any invite calls anymore. It's kind of a bummer. I do get a lot of annoying job calls though.

Yeah, I don't even mind the job offer calls so much. At least those are calls you can interact with. I do like my sims getting invited to things.

The calls I continue to hate are those congratulating you on becoming friends with another sim. Who does that? Why? And it's always sims who don't even know each other. My own BABY called me to say X sim was pretty cool. How would the baby know? Babies don't know anybody.
